out NOW! Production by Hudson Mohawke and Oneohtrix Point Never.

In providing an account of love, philosophical analyses must becareful to distinguish love from other positive attitudes we taketowards persons, such as liking. Intuitively, love differs from suchattitudes as liking in terms of its “depth,” and theproblem is to elucidate the kind of “depth” we intuitivelyfind love to have. Some analyses do this in part by providing thinconceptions of what liking amounts to. Thus, Singer (1991) and Brown(1987) understand liking to be a matter of desiring, an attitude thatat best involves its object having only instrumental (and notintrinsic) value. Yet this seems inadequate: surely there areattitudes towards persons intermediate between having a desire with aperson as its object and loving the person. I can care about a personfor her own sake and not merely instrumentally, and yet such caringdoes not on its own amount to (non-deficiently) loving her, for itseems I can care about my dog in exactly the same way, a kind ofcaring which is insufficiently personal for love.

Thank you for allowing me to clarify my position." - Antony

However, as LaFollette (1996, p. 63) correctly points out,

Antony and Franco Battiato played two shows together in Italy this summer and made a recording of some of the live tracks. It is currently available on iTunes in Italy .

The objection, however, lies precisely in this attempt to explain myconcern for my beloved egoistically. As Whiting (1991, p. 10) puts it,such an attempt “strikes me as unnecessary and potentiallyobjectionable colonization”: in love, I ought to be concernedwith my beloved for her sake, and not because I somehow getsomething out of it. (This can be true whether my concern with mybeloved is merely instrumental to my good or whether it is partlyconstitutive of my good.)

"In every deliberation, we must consider the impact on the seventh generation..." —Great Law of the Iroquois The Seventh Generation originated with the Iroquois when they thought it was appropriate to think seven generations ahead (a couple hundred years into the future) and decide whether the decisions they make today would benefit their children seven generations into the future.

HAMMER PROJECTS: ANTONY January 22nd-May 13th

This essay focuses on personal love, or the love of particular personsas such. Part of the philosophical task in understanding personal loveis to distinguish the various kinds of personal love. For example, theway in which I love my wife is seemingly very different from the way Ilove my mother, my child, and my friend. This task has typicallyproceeded hand-in-hand with philosophical analyses of these kinds ofpersonal love, analyses that in part respond to various puzzles aboutlove. Can love be justified? If so, how? What is the value of personallove? What impact does love have on the autonomy of both the lover andthe beloved?

Antony will perform today on at 2:30PM EST.

Antony has a track called "Angel on Fire" on the Catching Fire Soundtrack which is out now on. It is a song that Antony wrote in 1992. The backing track for the song is partly comprised of 4track recording that Antony once used in club performances in NYC.
